Quotes 

• Kate Beckett : [investigating a murder on a cruise liner]  Are we moving?

  Richard Castle : Beckett, I think your crime scene's making a run for it.

• [on the phone with Beckett, having discovered a direct link between the current case and LokSat] 

  Vikram Singh : Good thing Castle's nowhere near this one.

  Kate Beckett : Yeah.

  Richard Castle : Ahoy! I'm the king of the world!

  [Beckett sees Castle on a deck above her and lowers her phone in disbelief] 

  Vikram Singh : Hello? Beckett?

  Kate Beckett : [to herself]  This can't be happening.

• Janice Elden : Here at Iconic, we pride ourselves on two things. The old world elegance of ocean travel, and our impeccable safety record. So I'm sure whatever happened to Lara was simply a tragic accident.

  Kate Beckett : Uh, well, she was shot in the head. So, unless she tripped and fell on a bullet, it wasn't an accident.

• [after pretending to be a dancer and going through a rehearsal] 

  Kate Beckett : [on phone]  Hey, get anything?

  Richard Castle : A pulled groin and a potential clue.

• Richard Castle : You know, we really should take a little... cruise. Imagine all the romantic secret interludes we could have.

  Kate Beckett : You mean, like that scene in "Titanic", the one in the old car?

  Richard Castle : Yeah. Jack and Rose and the steamy window. We could just jump into one of these life boats and...

  Richard Castle , Kate Beckett : The life boats!

• [last lines] 

  Kate Beckett : You were right.

  Richard Castle : Okay.

  Kate Beckett : Everything that you said, you were absolutely right.

  Richard Castle : Could you be more specific?

  Kate Beckett : That our break-up could have just been a cover, so that we could bring down LokSat together.

  Richard Castle : Yeah. I wish you would have come to me.

  Kate Beckett : Well, I'm here now. So let's do it.

  Richard Castle : It's not that easy.

  Kate Beckett : I thought that you... would...

  Richard Castle : Just take you back? In spite of what you put me through?

  Kate Beckett : Look, Castle, I am sorry. I hate that I hurt you. That was never what I wanted.

  Richard Castle : But you did hurt me, Kate. And what's worse, you lost faith in me.

  Kate Beckett : No, I never... I need you, Rick. I didn't realize even how much I needed you until this happened... Please. Just don't make me do this without you.

  Richard Castle : Okay.

  [kisses her] 

  Richard Castle : Though you do realize... I'm gonna have to punish you a little first.

  Kate Beckett : Naked punishing?

  Richard Castle : *Very* naked punishing.

  Lucy : Aw, you guys.

• Kate Beckett : So, um, the text from last night, what did you find?

  Vikram Singh : Actually, uh... that's a dead end.

  Kate Beckett : What?

  Vikram Singh : My bad.

  Kate Beckett : An- And you didn't know this last night?

  Vikram Singh : Um...

  Kate Beckett : Did you text me to pull me out of my anniversary dinner with Castle?

  Vikram Singh : Look, you broke up with him for a reason... No one can know what we're doing, especially Castle. It's too dangerous.

  Kate Beckett : I know! And I- I am being extremely careful. I'm just trying not to lose my marriage in the process.

• Javier Esposito : Perlmutter just called. Turns out that baggie from Lara's stomach, pure uncut heroin.

  Kevin Ryan : Uncut? No wonder she only swallowed one baggie. That 8-Ball has a street value of 30k.

  Kate Beckett : Uncut heroin comes directly from the cartel. So how does a dancer from Michigan get her hands on that?

• Richard Castle : You know, when I hung up my shingle as a P.I., I knew I'd have to follow some wives, I just never thought it'd be my own.

  Kate Beckett : Castle, why couldn't you just trust me?

  Richard Castle : How can you ask me that? I saw the text Vikram sent you last night. I thought you were in trouble. Instead, I find out you've been lying to me.

  Kate Beckett : I was trying to protect you.

  Richard Castle : From Allison Hyde's killer? Yeah, it was easy to figure out once I realized you weren't just looking for "me time."

  Kate Beckett : LokSat thinks that his cover-up worked. That's why he let us live. And if he finds out that I am still pursuing this, he will kill me and anyone that I am close to. *That's* why I had to push you away.

  Richard Castle : The fact that you even think that... breaks my heart. I'd walk into a tornado for you, Kate.

  Kate Beckett : And I would die if I lost you.

  Richard Castle : You want to know what hurts the most? You could've come to me with everything, broken us up, just like you did. Only it would have been a cover. And together, in secret, we could have taken this guy down. Only that thought never even occurred to you. Because deep down inside, you like being broken and you need this obsession. And no matter what I do, I can't change that. Only you can, Kate.

• Vikram Singh : You okay?

  Kate Beckett : No... Acosta's partner could have brought us closer to LokSat. Instead, he's in the morgue. It's all come crashing down around my ears, and I've got nobody to blame but myself.

  Vikram Singh : Ahh, you are having a pity party. That's okay. I'll leave. But I will be taking a pretty juicy clue with me.

  Kate Beckett : If you're messing with me, I might shoot you.

• Vikram Singh : I was able to trace the ownership of the warehouse where Sam Mackey dropped off the heroin. It's a Caymans shell corp. I dug back into the articles of incorporation from '99. You won't believe who wrote up those documents... Caleb Brown.

  Kate Beckett : Acosta's public defender?

  Vikram Singh : Turns out Brown worked for a major corporate law firm back in the day. Pulled in mid-six figures annually. Then he suddenly gave it up a few years ago to be a... defender of the people.

  Kate Beckett : That's the perfect cover. It gives Brown access to assets in prison, and allows him to pass orders to dealers that we've already caught.

  Vikram Singh : Dealers like Acosta.

  Kate Beckett : Brown told Acosta to take the fall for Lara's murder so that we would back off of the drugs.

  Vikram Singh : And Acosta obliged. That's how powerful Brown is.

  Kate Beckett : Okay, we can't go straight at this guy. He's not a scared truck driver. This guy is a shark. And if he sees us coming, LokSat's gonna burn all of us. We've got to track Brown's every move, nice and quiet.

  Vikram Singh : It's gonna take time.

  Kate Beckett : Yeah, but if we do it right... he'll lead us straight to LokSat.

• Kate Beckett : Uh, Vikram?

  Vikram Singh : Surprise! Welcome to our new office.

  Kate Beckett : A strip club? Really?

  Vikram Singh : Hey, you said to find a location where we could hunt for LokSat without anyone looking over our shoulders.

  Kate Beckett : Yeah. And, uh, this is the best you could find?

  Vikram Singh : It's perfect. Vice raided the place, now it's tied up in trial. We can operate here for months completely off the grid.

• [Castle and Hayley are trying to hack Vikram's computer] 

  Vikram Singh : She's almost in. I can launch a cyber-nuke, but it'll completely fry his system.

  Kate Beckett : He's got a back-up system at home.

  Vikram Singh : Is that a go for launch?

  Kate Beckett : Yes.

  Hayley Shipton : No, no, no, no, no, no, no! Oh!

  Richard Castle : What... just happened?

  Hayley Shipton : Armageddon, I'm afraid. Vikram's nuked the whole system. We've lost everything.

  Richard Castle : We've lo... I never liked that guy.

  Kate Beckett : Did they get in?

  Vikram Singh : No. Another *second* and they would have. Thankfully our location and all our files are still safe.

  Kate Beckett : Yeah. For now. I just hope I didn't nuke my marriage.

• Vikram Singh : Where you going?

  Kate Beckett : I need to talk to Castle.

  Vikram Singh : No. That'll have to wait. I found the garbage truck driver from Friendly Islands. His shift ends in thirty minutes. With Lara's murder all over the news, they might be circling their wagons. We gotta get to him now.

  Kate Beckett : No, I hate lying to him.

  Vikram Singh : I know. But you're doing it for the right reasons. This's our first real shot to get to LokSat. We have to take it.

  Kate Beckett : You're right.

  [sighs] 

  Kate Beckett : Tell me about the driver.

• [Castle is trying to stall Beckett so Hayley can hack Vikram, while she's trying to stall him so Vikram can lock them out] 

  Richard Castle : [answers phone]  Hey.

  Kate Beckett : Hey, babe.

  Richard Castle : Change your mind about tonight?

  Kate Beckett : Uh, you know, uh, tonight's still not gonna work. But what about right now? Feel like steaming up your office?

  Richard Castle : My office? That sounds great. I'm, uh... sort of in the middle of something right now.

  Kate Beckett : Really? That's too bad. 'Cause I'm right downstairs.

  Richard Castle : "Downstairs" downstairs?

  Kate Beckett : Yeah. I can be up in ten seconds.

  Richard Castle : Ten seconds is... not long at all. Hang- Hang- Hang on one second.

  [he mutes the call] 

  Richard Castle : [to Hayley]  We have to shut it down. She's gonna walk in the front door.

  Hayley Shipton : No. She's lying. Her phone is pinging from Queens.

  Richard Castle : She knows it's us who's hacking her.

  [taking the phone off mute] 

  Richard Castle : Sorry about that. Just taking off my pants. You coming up?

  [Beckett mutes the call] 

  Kate Beckett : [to Vikram]  He knows I'm lying.

  [unmuting the call] 

  Kate Beckett : Hey. Uh... You know what,

  [laughs] 

  Kate Beckett : something just came up. Rain check?

  Richard Castle : Sure. You know where to find me.

• [Castle calls Beckett to allow Hayley to hack past Vikram's firewall] 

  Kate Beckett : Hey, Rick. What's up? You decided to buy that boat?

  Richard Castle : Well, someone's in a good mood. You thinking about our naked time?

  Kate Beckett : Um... no.

  Richard Castle : Well, I am. Haven't stopped thinking about it. As a matter of fact, um... tell you what, how about round two tonight? My place, no one has to know.

  Kate Beckett : Yeah, I can't. I have to work tonight.

  [Hayley gestures to keep her talking] 

  Richard Castle : Um, well, I thought, uh, being a Captain meant you could delegate.

  Kate Beckett : Well, you know what, I actually have to do a few things myself.

  Richard Castle : Well, maybe I can help. What are you working on?

  Kate Beckett : [glancing at Vikram]  Um... Captain stuff?

  Richard Castle : Well, then...

  [Hayley gestures she's decrypted Vikram's first firewall] 

  Richard Castle : ...Then good luck with your Captain stuff. Bye.

  [hangs up] 

  Kate Beckett : Hello?

• Kate Beckett : How did you get on board?

  Richard Castle : You know, we always talked about buying a boat. What do you think? I mean, I know it's a fixer-upper.

  Kate Beckett : I don't know, maybe for our second anniversary.

  Richard Castle : Oh, I don't know if anything's gonna compare to the first.

• Captain Ziering : Oh, and just so the two of you know, they're sending a boat to pick you up in about an hour.

  Richard Castle : So we got sixty minutes to investigate this murder before we lose access to our crime scene.

  Captain Ziering : And about that...

  Richard Castle : Really?

  Captain Ziering : I've been instructed to order the crew not to cooperate with you. Hey, I'm not losing my job over this.

  [turns and leaves] 

  Kate Beckett : We gotta divide and conquer.

  Richard Castle : Right. I'll talk to Lara's dancer friends. They may be the last ones to see her alive.

  Kate Beckett : Okay, but just remember, they're not supposed to cooperate, so don't tell them that you're working with the police.

  Richard Castle : Where will you be?

  Kate Beckett : There are three Marthas on Lido deck. If anyone knows anything about this ship, it's gonna be them. And plus, they're not with the crew.

  Richard Castle : All right. If they're anything like my mother, you're gonna have your hands full.

• Kate Beckett : I know what you're thinking, Sam. You're thinking I'm not gonna kill you, and you are right. But you've been running drugs, and that means the NYPD can seize everything in your life.

  Vikram Singh : You want your kids to live out of a cardboard box? 'Cause that's what's gonna happen.

  Sam Mackey : I don't know any names. They pay me not to ask questions. Don't involve my family. I- I... I didn't have a choice.

  Vikram Singh : I think he's telling the truth.

  Kate Beckett : All right, Sam, here's what's gonna happen. I'm not gonna arrest you. But if you get another delivery...

  [hands him a card] 

  Kate Beckett : ... you call this number.

  Sam Mackey : No, no, no, no. I can't. They'll kill me.

  Kate Beckett : They might. But if I arrest you, they definitely will.

  Vikram Singh : And telling them about this conversation guarantees that your whole family will be wiped out.

  Sam Mackey : I won't say a word. I promise.

  Kate Beckett : Good. Now where exactly is the warehouse full of heroin?
